CORE DEFINITION

Vaginal flatus, with sound resembling passing gas. Often due to dryness and stagnation in the gastrointestinal tract, where the qi of the bowels cannot descend, so the qi escapes through the anterior yin (vagina).

SCAFFOLDING EFFECT

psychology

Reduce cognitive load

Qi pathway short-circuit. When the back door (anus) is blocked, the pressure of qi becomes too high, forcing open the partition and escaping through the front door (vagina). Treatment should be to "moisten and guide" (lubricate the intestines to promote bowel movement); once the back door is open, the front door will be fine.

anchor

Anchor fast decisions

Refers to the expulsion of gas from the vagina with a rustling sound, often due to qi deficiency with failure to consolidate, or dryness and stagnation in the gastrointestinal tract with obstruction of bowel qi; also seen postpartum.

Glass Walls

Distinct from the 'glass ceiling' (vertical promotion barrier), it refers to women or minority groups being isolated in certain functional departments (e.g., HR, administration), making it difficult to move laterally to core business departments (e.g., sales, R&D), thereby lacking the key experience needed for promotion.

Inertia

Inertia is the natural tendency of objects in motion to stay in motion and objects at rest to stay at rest, unless a force causes its velocity to change. It is one of the fundamental principles in classical physics, and is described by Isaac Newton in his first law of motion (also known as The Principle of Inertia). It is one of the primary manifestations of mass, one of the core quantitative properties of physical systems.
